( uld S'ttle Supremacy By Flaying the Western Champions. IIUl Military plays at Baker Citr next Thursday, and, unfortunately an other year is to slip by without the strongest in the western half vleing with the leading team of the entorn half of the state, Daker City, it must be conceded is entitled to uphold the Eastern Oregon honors, but Just why the management of the Baker City team should select a defeated team of Portland is more than can be un derstood here, especially when tnc championship of the state might be involved. Washington. High of 1'ort land or Eugene holds the undiluted title to the championship of that tac tion. Comparative scores alone can . s. U - - tts U.WIW.1UV Uili 4bi est team In Oregon, even after the Hill-Baker game. All this Is to be regretted especially in view of the fact that Washington High has been clamoring for. a ;aroe I In Eastern Oregon that might ict i s an indicator to the state laurels. Re gardless of who wins at Baker, the ; championship will not be determined i excepting In this phase of it, that should Hill Defeat Baker, the Western ; Oregon supremacy over Eastern Ore gon will have been established even though Hill Is not the strongest team ; In the western half. i Eastern Affairs Muddled. j Terhaps never before in local foot ball have there been such a muddle of championship honors as this year Manifestly, Baker City has shown the greatest temnorary strength In that it defeated Pendleton d 1a Grando didn't. To claim championship a leum must have the undisputed right ti that honor. Of course Baker City has not. Pendleton can't lay claim to it, of course; neither can Union. All concentrated to the smallest pill lOHHlble, Baker City stands the strong est .team in Eastern Oregon alone with out bona fide claim to the champion ship, La Grande second, . rendWon third and Union fourth. Still another feature that must be considered and one which rises la Grande's preslge and lowers that of Btiker City, Is that La Gran-Vj has DSEBTXEJ.1 CRUDE, 0KZG0I M03TPAT, SOTEEBEB 81, 1909. ' thus far played two big gam. more than Baker City. Spokane's narrow ?b f;ape has carried much prestige to La Crende. La Grande's victory at Caid well over the strongest team in all the Southern and Western ponton of Idaho has given It additional prestige which Baker City cannot claim. The Caldwell victory coupled w!tA the tie bcore at Baker puts La Grau'la in the running strongly and she defeated Pendleton, her claim would have been far more weighty than Baker' t.ow Is. But the ir didn't ha.M'cn at I cndleton, consequently tn home tenm is brought down on a levl with and even a trifle below that of Baker City, the computation being made on paper and scores. All this is based on the story told by scores., As to actual playing strength, hundreds in this city know tan La Gntude played rings around Spokane, the tcore to the contrary noUifHUind lug. and that the score at Eaker City was not 6 to 6 actually. There It ao excuse for La Grande's BhoIiig at P-indleton. So, weighed pro anl con, urjprejudicially, it Is safe to reiterats .lie championship of Eastern Oiegoi. actually or comparatively, is a sadly middled state of affairs.
